Botox frequently asked questions
What is Botox?
Botox and Dysport are brands of neuromodulators which consist of a purified protein that temporarily relaxes and softens muscles in your body. For cosmetic and anti-aging purposes, Botox and Dysport are injected into common areas such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet to reduce or eliminate fine lines and wrinkles. Botulinum toxin has medical applications as well, including treating excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and Botox for teeth grinding.
How long does Botox last?
The effects vary depending on how your skin reacts to the injection, your age, the frequency of treatments, the dose, and metabolism, amongst others. On average, Botox lasts for 3 to 4 months. Some patients enjoy the positive results of the treatment for six months. Our motto is “start low, go slow,” so if it’s your first time, we’re likely to recommend a “Baby Botox” dose to help ease you into treatments and maintain natural movement while avoiding a frozen or unnatural appearance.
To ensure the best results for your skin, we at Lift Clinic Toronto aim to work with you, your goals, and your comfort to provide you with the best Botox in Toronto.
How much does Botox cost?
If you are wondering how much is Botox in Toronto, the honest answer is that it depends. It varies from clinic to clinic but costs around $10-$17 per unit on average. Some clinics price their Botox treatments higher, and others are lower than the average.
At Lift Clinic Toronto, we do our best to work within your budget and attain realistic goals for you and your skin. Since everyone’s skin, muscle movement, and facial anatomy are different. Our pricing for Botox is $11 per unit and our pricing for Dysport is $10 per unit. We offer Free Consultations to answer your questions and tailor a treatment to your goals.
How many units of Botox do I need?
Botox and Dysport injections vary depending on the area, muscle strength, and facial anatomy, amongst other factors. Our approach is to start low and go slow, meaning we begin on a low dosage to introduce the neuromodulator to your skin during your first few sessions. It can progress to higher dosages as needed to see the results. As an example, treating your forehead can range anywhere from five to 30 units. For an accurate assessment, it is best to go to a Botox clinic in Toronto for a free consultation.
How long does it take for Botox to work ?
It generally takes about three to four days before you can see the effects of Botox treatment on your skin, with the best results achieved after 14 days. After 14 days, you can decide whether or not you want additional units or wait for it to wear off until your next treatment, approximately three months later.
Is Botox safe?
Though Botox is considered a toxin, it has numerous benefits for your body. When administered correctly, Botox is safe to get injected into your body.
To ensure your safety, only let the best Botox clinic in Toronto administer the treatment to you. Lift Clinic provides you with leading experts in cosmetic injectables, so you feel safe and comfortable for your treatment.
What is Botox made of?
Botox and Dysport, or botulinum toxin type A, is a byproduct derived from a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. Botox and Dysport contain very microscopic amounts of a purified protein called botulinum toxin derived from clostridium botulinum. Botox and Dysport have a remarkably safe history and are considered safe in small dosages. If you want to get Botox, go to licensed medical experts for consultation, work-up, treatment, and aftercare to ensure your safety. Lift Clinic Toronto aims to offer you the best Botox in Toronto.
How does Botox work?
Wrinkles and fine lines are caused by hyperactive muscles in the face, which leads to the creasing of the skin. Over time, these creases turn into permanent lines, like etches in the skin. In order to prevent and reduce the appearance of these lines, Botox and Dysport need to temporarily stop the nerves from speaking to the muscle so the muscle can have a moment to relax. Specifically, it blocks a neurotransmitter called Acetylcholine from telling your muscle to move too much. As a result, the muscle weakens and relaxes, preventing it from moving more than it typically would. For instance, when you receive Botox on your crow’s feet, you’ll be able to smile normally without developing fine and deep creases around the eyes as the muscle isn’t being told by the nerves to contract and wrinkle the skin.
Does Botox hurt?
The short answer is no – not when you visit an experienced injector. Botox injections feel similar to a mosquito bite. If you decide to get the treatment, you will only feel minimal discomfort. There is no need for analgesics or topical numbing prior to treatments as it is quick, painless, and tolerable. Some patients have a temporary feeling of stinging on some injection sites. Following the treatment, your skin can be slightly pink, which resolves in a matter of minutes.
How to prevent bruising after a Botox treatment?
There are several ways to prevent bruising after your Botox treatment. Here are a few:
- Avoid supplements, alcohol, or medications that can thin out your blood. They can delay clotting, which leads to bruising at the injection sites.
- Avoid consuming any type of alcohol to ensure that you have the proper platelet count for healing after the treatment.
- Use topical Arnica or Arnica tablets (if safely recommended by your provider) to reduce your risk of bruising and improve any downtime related to bruising. It comes in oral tablets and topical ointment.
- Avoid vigorous exercise for 24-hours post-treatment
What is the downtime after Botox injections?
When you get a Botox treatment, you will not have to worry about any significant downtime or any break from your routine. Botox is considered a lunchtime procedure – it doesn’t have too much downtime or recovery period. You just have to follow the aftercare reminders from your injector to avoid adverse effects on your face or body, such as bruising, swelling, or migration.
What are the side effects of Botox
Botox, like other treatments, has its possible side effects on your body. Here are some of the common ones amongst others not mentioned:
- It can cause temporary bruising and swelling on the injection sites. If you bruise easily, ensure to follow the aftercare instructions following the treatment to avoid these effects.
- You may also feel headaches, forehead heaviness, and flu-like symptoms after the treatment.
To discuss all of the benefits and risks associated with Botox injections, we recommend getting a consultation for Botox in Toronto from a licensed and accredited clinic. At Lift Clinic, we guarantee you that we have a team of medical experts who specializes in cosmetic injectables.
How long does it take for Botox to work or for Botox to “kick in”?
Generally, you can start to see and feel the results of the Botox within 3 to 4 days after the treatment. However, the full effects kick in after 14 days following the initial treatment. After 14 days, we recommend scheduling a follow-up to check-in and compare before and after photos, answer any questions, and touch up any areas which need additional units.
How long after Botox can you lay down?
When you get Botox, we sometimes recommend avoiding laying down for the first 4 hours after the treatment. Although this is a myth that has been busted, we like to say it to err on the side of caution. Avoid doing any extraneous exercise for 24-hours post-treatment because it can lead to movement of the product. Let your muscles absorb the product. We also recommend avoiding massage or facials for two weeks post-treatment to avoid migrating any of the products.
What are the most common cosmetic areas injected with Botox?
Botox is best known for its cosmetic purposes. It helps reduce or slow down the appearance of wrinkles on someone’s skin. Due to this effect, there are five (5) common areas where the drugs get injected.
- Forehead wrinkles – It helps reduce horizontal lines on your forehead area and vertical lines between the brows that are caused by the constant raising of the brows and frowning.
- Crow’s Feet – It is the area at the side of your eyes. The wrinkles in this area show when laughing or squinting.
- Marionette Lines – These wrinkles show around the mouth area. It appears due to constant smiling or frowning.
- Sagging eyebrow – The brows drop as we age, making the Botox brow lift a popular treatment for lifting the brows for a refreshed appearance.
- Neck and jaw area – Signs of aging often appear in the neck and jaw area. Skin in these areas sags quickly and erases the definition of your face. Botox lifts and tucks these areas for you to look more youthful. Injections in the jaw can also improve TMJ.
How long does it take to see the results from your Botox injections?
You can see the results of your Botox injection in as fast as 3 to 4 days. The maximum effect of Botox is visible within 14 days after the treatment. Take note that it varies from patient to patient. The appearance of results depends on how fast your body reacts to Botox injections. While waiting for its full effects on you, be observant of changes in the injection sites and your body.
What should I not do after Botox injections?
After getting Botox injections, avoid laying down or bending within the first 4 hours. You should also avoid doing any extraneous activities after a day or two to avoid complications. While it is a non-surgical procedure, the Botox can travel or relocate in your body if you move vigorously. It is best to wait for the toxin to settle in the injection site before doing brisk movements such as lifting and running.
How does Botox compare with Dysport?
There aren’t any differences between the two products. Many clinics use Botox and Dysport interchangeably. At Lift Clinic, we prefer using Dysport for our injectables. The effects of Dysport tend to kick in a bit quicker and last a bit longer. This will always be patient-dependent.
Overall, both Botox and Dysport are effective treatments. If you’ve tried one product, you can always try another. We support whatever makes you feel confident in your own skin.
What other medical conditions does Botox treat?
Botox is known for its cosmetic effects on people by making them feel and look youthful by lifting their sagging skin, but it can also be used to treat other conditions. Medical conditions that Botox can improve include:
- Cervical dystonia or neck spasms
- Excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis
- Overactive bladder
- Lazy eye
- Eye twitching or blepharospasm
- Chronic migraines
Can Botox cause headaches?
Botox can cause headaches after injections. It varies from patient to patient. Hence, they need to undergo pre-treatment workups to see if they will get a severe reaction to the toxin or show mild side effects such as headaches and bruising.
If you want to prevent or minimize the effects of Botox treatment on you, it is crucial that you have a consultation prior to receiving the injections. Licensed and accredited clinics should be able to provide you with that to ensure your safety.
